Ellen DeGeneres Chastised; Forced to Deny She’s Racist After Usain Bolt Meme Controversy, by WENN newsdesk.
Ellen DeGeneres has denied she is racist after coming under fire for a Usain Bolt meme she posted on Twitter:
The comedian faced a backlash on social media, with some branding the image racist and insensitive. “You thought it’d be funny to post a pic of yourself riding on the back of a black man? Nope. Delete this racist garbage,” wrote one user. ” …
Bolt, who was a guest on her show last year, also retweeted the image, further supporting Ellen’s claims that the meme was not intended to cause offense.
Humorless PC scolds.
